TRMNL: hackable e-ink dashboard to put anywhere

According to Boing Boing, TRMNL is a new battery-powered e-ink display designed to sit anywhere in your space—on a desk, shelf, or refrigerator—showing only the information you choose to see. Unlike typical screens, it runs quietly without notifications, backlighting, or constant demands for your attention. You can customize what it displays: weather, calendars, transit schedules, sales pipelines, or any data feed you want to monitor. It's hackable, designed for people who want ambient information without the attention-stealing overhead of modern devices.
